Policy 813: DISTRICT TELEPHONE USAGE

The Aberdeen School District will keep lines of communication, most notably, telephones in the buildings to guarantee ease of parental notification and communication, to have the same with other schools and the State Dept. of Education. In order to ensure these phones are used in the district’s interest, controlling regulations are as follows:

1 – The school district will pay only for those calls pertinent to district or building business. Building calls will be charged to the building’s lump sum budget, to the appropriate student group, or athletic budget.

2– Personal calls will be billed to the individual making the phone call. Personal calls are discouraged. The preferred method of long distance billing for other thanschool business is to charge the personal call to a credit card number or to a home phone number.
